There’s a large number of well-to-do people who are remarkably dumb.

So essentially the same people who can afford a brand new RX, but still drive around with a phone on their ear because they can’t/won’t figure out the bluetooth.

There you go with reasonable facts and data to refute a story. Take your star. Still, this sure explains how so many people are driving around in $60k trucks. 

centuries later we are still feeling the effects in society.

As a brown person currently living in a colony of the US, myself, I’d rather the whytes—and especially gamers who are whyte—have the “realities” of slavery jammed their throats even in the smallest, most gamified ways, simply because no other form of entertainment—or education, in some places—is trying to make any…

How the US would see slavery today is a bit of a question for the masses, I suspect. The US was literally founded this way that I imagine it’s pretty much ingrained in a lot of insulated white Americans to look down on minorities after seeing them as property for a healthy period of the US’s rise. No, I’m not…

I hate to post another “ as a black guy” post. But yes, do it, put it in there and let people see the reality(or virtual reality) that were the horrors of slavery. This could help build a real dialogue about discussing it because there are people in power who would like to see it thrown under the rug of time. I’d like…

Accepting a raid, or keeping raiders flagged to ban the entire raid as needed and report......both would be easy for twitch to do and solve the problem.

The thing is that it’s a good feature that is being abused by a small, and hateful, group of individuals. I’ve discovered many good streamers simply by “raiding” them after watching a streamer I enjoy. It genuinely helps streamers with gaining new followers/subscribers.

Yea, i am not sure the ‘value’ of the raid feature offsets the harm it can do. Sure, a big streamer could drop a raid on a smaller streamer to get them some viewers but the fact that it causes this much trouble shows it should just be retired.

Or they could put in a system where the person being raided has to you know,…

How about just, oh I don’t know, remove the feature

“True gamer.” OK, kiddo. You know that after high school, we don’t care about silly, stupid judgments like this, right?

When thousands of good indie game developers are vying for my gamer dollars, shitty opinions like these help me pare down the list of possibilities to something more manageable. It has been probably said already, but I wish more of these scumbags would speak out, it would make choosing games on Steam a whole lot…

Not a true gamer

It was the basic mechanism that Stasi, the Eastern German secret police used. It’s not metaphorical to say this is some totalitarian bullshit.

This is really easy: as a consumer, I have the right to spend my money how I want, for any reasons I want. If I decide that I don’t want to spend money on a game because of the political opinion the man who owns the company that made it, that’s my choice. You may think my reasons are not good, but why should I care?…

That ranking is a bit misleading because each state in the U.S. could easily be a country in and of itself. The amount of freedom granted to citizens can vary wildly from state to state.

I mean it’s just nationalism for the most part. Which most American’s like to dress up as “patriotism” because it makes it sound nicer. But nope. It’s nationalism. American’s are so obsessed with telling everyone else that their country is the best that they haven’t noticed how badly it smells.

America. Land of the “free”.

Awesome! I love when people with shitty attitudes open their mouths and make it easy for me to know not to support their business!
